Deck layouts, review of facilities, activities, amenities

Costa neoRomantica deck plan review at CruiseMapper provides newest cruise deck plans (2025-2026-2027 valid floor layouts of the vessel) extracted from the officially issued by Scrapped Cruise Ships deckplan pdf (printable version).

Each of the Costa neoRomantica cruise ship deck plans are conveniently combined with a legend (showing cabin codes) and detailed review of all the deck's venues and passenger-accessible indoor and outdoor areas. A separate link provides an extensive information on Costa neoRomantica staterooms (cabins and suites), including photos, cabin plans and amenities by room type and category.

Costa neoRomantica (built in 1993 as "Costa Romantica", extensively refurbished in 2012, last refurbished in April 2017, and scrapped in 2021 under the name "Antares Experience") was the second and final vessel of Costa Cruises' Classica-class, alongside Costa neoClassica (now Margaritaville Paradise). Following an extensive renovation in 2011-2012, the ship was renamed "Costa neoRomantica". In July 2020, she was sold to Celestyal Cruises and renamed "Celestyal Experience".

In September 2021, the vessel was sold again and renamed "Antares Experience". By November 2021, the Gadani Ship Breaking Yard (Pakistan) confirmed the ship was sold for scrapping.

The Costa neoRomantica deck plan included a total of 789 staterooms accommodating 1578 passengers (maximum capacity 1894), served by 650 crew members. The ship had 13 decks (10 accessible to passengers, 8 with cabins), 4 restaurants, 9 lounges and bars, 3 swimming pools (none with retractable glass roofs), 2 outdoor jacuzzis, and 8 elevators. There were no self-service laundry facilities on board.

Service decks were named as follows: Deck 1 (Split), Deck 2 (Berlin), and Deck 3 (Warsaw).

All of Costa neoRomantica’s decks were named after prominent European cities.

The ship’s interiors featured fine materials such as precious woods and Carrara marble, along with high-end artworks displayed throughout public areas. In addition to the onboard staff and crew, passengers were also assisted by Pepper robots—humanoid cyborgs introduced across the Costa fleet in 2016. These mobile robots greeted and guided passengers during embarkation and throughout the voyage, offering assistance and information about dining, entertainment, enrichment programs (workshops and scheduled events), casino and shopping promotions, and shore excursions. Pepper robots communicated in English, German, and Italian, and were capable of interpreting human emotions by analyzing tone of voice and facial expressions.
